The next day, Zhang Xiaochuan's interest in the tour did not decrease at all, and he walked all the way to see it, and unconsciously walked to the front of a temple. I saw that the four words of the Great Xiangguo Temple were written on it, and the eaves on both sides of the gatehouse of the temple were high, and it was very magnificent. People come and go at the gate of the temple, some enter and some go out, and there is an endless stream of people. "It seems that the incense of this temple is not ordinarily prosperous, but I don't know what this temple has to do with Xiangguo?" Zhang Xiaochuan thought in his heart, but his feet did not stop, and he went straight inside. When you enter the gate of the temple, the place inside is very open. It seems that there are hundreds of acres. I had never seen such a large-scale temple. First of all, what caught Zhang Xiaochuan's eyes was the Heavenly King Palace. There are five rooms and three doors in the Tianwang Palace, the eaves are picked, the yellow glazed tiles cover the top, and there is a sitting statue of Maitreya Buddha in the center. I saw the Buddha statue sitting on the lotus pot, with kind eyebrows and kind eyes, smiling and smiling, giving people a feeling of great joy. On both sides of the Heavenly King Palace, there are four heavenly kings. They are all round-eyed and angry, and they have the potential to destroy all evil in the world. Zhang Xiaochuan looked at the past one by one, but he also knew it. The one who holds the bead and holds the snake is the king of wide eyes, he is named for standing tall and seeing far; the person holding the red umbrella is the king of many things, he is known for his knowledge; the one who holds the sword is the king of growth, he hopes that the good heart and the root of kindness in the world will grow greatly; and finally the one who holds the pipa is the king of the country, who plays the music of the eight directions and protects the peace of all nations. The characters in it are lifelike, and Zhang Xiaochuan can't help but praise them.

After the Tianwang Hall to the north, a large garden rockery appeared. The scenery here is elegant, quite a "winding path leads to a secluded place, and the flowers and trees in the meditation room are deep". Further north, there is the famous main hall - the Daxiong Treasure Hall. The main hall is the heavy eaves bucket arch, carved beams and paintings, gold and green. The main hall is surrounded by bluestone railings, on which dozens of lively lions are carved, which is very lovely. After the Daxiong Treasure Palace, it is the Luohan Palace, only to see that it has a peculiar structure, it is an octagonal cloister type building, it is unique, and it is rare in the world. There is a large group statue "Sakyamuni Lecture Meeting" in the corridor in the Arhat Palace, five hundred Arhats have different postures, vivid shapes, they are either in the mountains and forests, or in the small bridge and flowing water, or sit or lie down, or raise the head, or bow the head, the form is realistic, and the interest is infinite. Zhang Xiaochuan was too addicted this time, and he was a little reluctant to leave. Walking back again, is the Pavilion of the Scriptures, which is a two-storey pavilion building, although it is the place where the scriptures are hidden, it is also a carved beam and painted building, magnificent.

The building of Daxiangguo Temple is so luxurious and covers such a wide area, Zhang Xiaochuan never imagined that there would be such a large-scale temple here. After looking at the main buildings in the temple, he still didn't understand why it was named "Xiangguo" even though it was a Buddhist temple. When Zhang Xiaochuan was repeating his question in his mouth, he said, "Little donor, please stay." Interrupted his thoughts. Zhang Xiaochuan looked back, and saw an old monk with kind eyebrows and kind eyes, looking at himself kindly, it turned out that he was talking to himself. "Are you talking to me?" "Amitabha, it is the old man, the little donor's question, the old man is willing to answer for you, but I don't know if the donor is willing to listen?" "So, there is Master Lao." Since seeing the name of this temple, Zhang Xiaochuan has always had doubts, and now that he has the opportunity to understand, how can he not listen.

"There are many legends about this temple, and the most touching one is the legend about Li Shimin. The old monk pondered for a while and began to speak. Saying: In the last years of the Sui Dynasty, the heroes competed for the Central Plains, and Li Shimin, the king of Qin, led a large army to capture Kaifeng. He placed the tent in the country of Qiao Xiang, a remnant of the previous dynasty, and went to inspect the whole city. Legend has it that King Liang Xiao of the Eastern Han Dynasty once built a platform here to recruit talents, so Kaifeng is also called Liang Yuan. At that time, the ancient city was in a dilapidated state due to harsh government and war. What Li Shimin saw along the way, the ruins and broken walls, and the starvation carried the road, which was really shocking. In the evening, Li Shimin returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion sullenly, only to see the black smoke and miasma in the back garden, and the fire was soaring to the sky. When I inquired, it turned out that Qiao Xiangguo was directing the servants to burn tin foil money. Qiao Xiangguo enjoyed all the glory and wealth of the world, and he was afraid of suffering and poverty after death, so he wanted to deposit the money in the underworld in advance. Li Shimin returned to the bedroom, with a lot of thoughts and mixed feelings, plus the saddle horse was tired, and he didn't feel in a trance. When he was hazy and about to fall asleep, he suddenly heard someone shouting loudly in his ear: "Li Shimin, come with me!" Li Shimin opened his eyes and saw a monster with a blue face and fangs and a cloak standing in front of him. Although he was afraid in his heart, he couldn't help but ask: "I don't know where the god is?" "I want to kill the ghost!" Li Shimin was shocked when he heard this, and wanted to pull out the sword at his waist, but his hands and feet were soft, and he couldn't move at all. Seeing this, the ghost snatched the sword, shook the chain around his neck, and led him away. Li Shimin couldn't help himself, he was in a daze, and he fell into the abyss all of a sudden. When Li Shimin came to his senses, as soon as he stood still, a large black and gloomy iron gate appeared in front of him. On the lintel of the iron gate were two big words written crookedly: "Hell". Li Shimin couldn't help but have a cold war, only to know that something was wrong. At this time, the jailer bull head and horse face came out. They looked Li Shimin up and down, glanced at each other, and said to the ghost: "Congratulations, brother, you have involved a big 'fat sheep' today!" Niu Tou smiled and said, "You eat meat and let me drink some leftover soup, you see that my old felt hat should also be replaced." Ma Mian hurriedly echoed: "Yes, my boots are also broken." The hook ghost made a look: "Brother knows it。。。。。。 The two of them immediately understood, and pounced on Li Shimin like hungry wolves, one took off his hat, the other took off his boots, and only let them in when the things were in hand.

As soon as I entered the gate of hell, there was a black rumbling, the wind was miserable, and the sound of shouting grievances and being tortured and groaning sounded everywhere. The ghost of the hook ordered Li Shimin to hand over to a sycophant who looked like a master, and then went to find a bull head and a horse face to have fun. Tomorrow happens to be the king's birthday, I can borrow flowers to offer Buddha, you probably won't make it difficult for me, right?" When he came to the Yama Hall after passing through one checkpoint, Li Shimin had already been stripped to only a pair of shorts to cover his shame. He couldn't help but be angry and annoyed, ashamed, and longed to burrow into the cracks in the ground. In the solemn and terrifying palace of Hades, King Yama sits high on the throne in the center, and the black-faced judges and red-faced judges stand on both sides. As soon as Li Shimin entered the hall, he shouted in unison: "Kneel!" Li Shimin thought to himself: "I am the commander of millions of troops, and the dignified King of Qin, how can I kneel down to you!" He ignored it, was righteous and awe-inspiring, and stood tall with his head held high. The black-faced judge immediately shouted angrily: "Bold! You live in the prime minister's mansion in the world, and you are a powerful and blessing, but when you come to my yin, you are a new ghost." Left and right, smash his majesty!" Before the words fell, several little ghosts rushed up, knocked Li Shimin to the ground, and stepped on one foot again.

At this time, the king of Hades slowly opened the book of life and death, and read in a strange manner: "Li Shimin, sixty years old, the housekeeper of Qiao Xiangguo's mansion。。。。。。 He rolled his eyelids and glanced at Li Shimin under the steps, patted the dragon case and said, "Oops, I made a mistake。。。。。。 The red-faced judge hurriedly leaned over and opened the book of life and death, and said in surprise: "No, the same name and surname are not the same, this Qin King Li Shimin still has forty years to live。。。。。。 When Li Shimin heard this, his nose was crooked, and he scolded in his heart: "The king of Wudao faints, the grass is disrespectful of human life, see how you send me down?" The king of Hades suddenly became in a hurry, and ordered everyone in the hall, "Left and right, don't let him return to Yang quickly!" The black-faced judge stopped him on the side and said, "The king is slow, if he leaks the truth about my underworld, won't he blaspheme the holy name of the king!" The king of Hades scratched the back of his head and hesitated, "But it's also 。。。。。。 The black-faced judge came up with an idea and said, "There is no mistake in grasping and not misplaced." This guy has a lot of oil and water, which is called crooked. The red-faced judge saw that the king of Hades nodded frequently, picked up the cinnabar pen and was about to circle it, and hurriedly stepped forward to dissuade him: "The world is waiting for Li Shimin to unify the country and benefit the people of Li. When Hades heard that it made sense, he couldn't help but be in a dilemma, and he was so anxious that he scratched his ears and cheeks. The red-faced judge rolled his eyes and said, "I have a way to get the best of both worlds。。。。。。 After saying that, he whispered in Hades' ear for a while. When the king of Hades heard this, he immediately smiled, and immediately ordered the sycophants to take a seat for Li Shimin.

Li Shimin didn't know what kind of medicine they were selling in their gourd, and waited anxiously for the results to be revealed. The sycophant looked at the words, raised his face and said to Li Shimin, "Please come here, it is my lord's hospitality, and it is the king's grace to send you back to the yang。。。。。。 Li Shimin was already dissatisfied, and said angrily, "I understand your good intentions." The red-faced judge patted him affectionately on the shoulder: "But there is one condition, you have to come up with a sum of ransom money。。。。。。 Li Shimin was suddenly furious, and said angrily to them, "You want to be a **, and you want to build a memorial arch!" The black-faced judge glared at each other, his face showed a fierce light, and said fiercely, "Li Shimin, don't be ignorant, it's easy to get in and difficult to get out, if you don't pay tribute, don't want to see the light of day again!" The red-faced judge sneered on the side, playing a round field, "This matter is easy to discuss." Those who know the times are Junjie, and the King of Qin must not be rash, because of small losses, I am thinking about you。。。。。。 "Under the low eaves of people, how dare you not bow your head. Li Shimin was anxious to get out of the cage, so he had to swallow his anger and said, "If I conquer the country, I will definitely dedicate gold, silver, jewelry, mountains and seas to the king." Hades' head shook like a rattle: "It's not good, it's not good, far water can't quench the thirst of the near." Li Shimin looked at his body, there was nothing of value anymore, and he was so anxious that he turned around. "I have an idea, Qiao Xiangguo has deposited 30,000 taels of silver in advance with me, you can borrow it. The sycophant immediately brought a paper inkstone, and Li Shimin had to write an IOU. The king of Hades slapped Li Shimin coldly, and he suddenly fell into the clouds and mist, and he was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat and exclaimed for help. When Li Shimin opened his eyes, he saw all the guards kneeling in front of the bed, calling in unison: "Your Highness wake up, Your Highness wake up。。。。。。 Li Shimin was shocked, only to realize that he was lying in his clothes, and it turned out that he had a nightmare. The next day, Li Shimin was still uneasy, and after his cronies and subordinates heard about it, they came to greet him one after another. Li Shimin couldn't help but recount the scene in the dream, and asked everyone: "What is the evil of this dream?" A general replied: "I think about it during the day and dream about it at night, Your Highness hates corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and cares about the good people, so I have this dream." A strategist said: "The underworld is still so dark, there are many injustices in the world, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty is absurd and unreasonable, the harsh government is fiercer than the tiger, the people are not happy, the rod rises, the rise and fall of the past dynasties, I hope His Royal Highness thinks deeply。。。。。。 Li Shimin nodded yes.

Later, Li Shimin became the emperor, and he really took many enlightened measures to reform the rule of officials and appease the people. During his reign, the government was harmonious, and the country and the people were safe. Li Shimin borrowed 30,000 taels of silver from Qiao Xiangguo in a dream, and he has always been concerned about it. After he ascended the throne, he summoned Qiao Xiangguo to Chang'an to repay his debts, but where did Qiao Xiangguo dare to ask for it? He kowtowed like pounding garlic, and he did not dare to admit his debts. It was Chrysostom that became the emperor, and he couldn't borrow or repay, so Li Shimin had to say: "Since you insist on not wanting it, I will use this money to build a temple for you in Liangyuan, so as to exorcise demons and suppress evil spirits for the people." Because this temple was built by Li Shimin in order to repay the debt to Qiao Xiangguo, it was named Daxiangguo Temple.

"What a wonderful story, thank you for your advice. "Amitabha, the little donor is polite. "Abbot, no, someone has come to make trouble, and several of us have already been injured. At this time, a little monk ran over in a panic to pray. It turned out that this old monk was the abbot of the temple, and he gave a salute to Zhang Xiaochuan and said, "Little donor, I am out of company, and the old man has something to deal with." "Abbot, please. "In broad daylight, who dares to come here to make trouble, Zhang Xiaochuan also followed.

The place of the incident was near the Scripture Pavilion, and when it got closer, there were already many people gathered there. The monks of Daxiangguo Temple formed an arhat formation, and they all held sticks to stop one person. "Wang Tian," Zhang Xiaochuan was very surprised when he saw the man's face clearly, how could it be possible, how could he have such a great martial arts? Zhang Xiaochuan was confused in the clouds. I saw Wang Tian's attack on the yin and the cruelty, he seemed to be beaten with iron all over his body, and he was not afraid of the blow of the stick at all. Wang Tian's face was pale, and his two hands were like iron hooks and eagle claws, and they were black and purple when he fought with people, and he looked like a hungry ghost, and this appearance alone was terrifying enough. I saw that Wang Tian suddenly strengthened his strength, broke several sticks at once, and fell down several monks. He leapt to his feet, and was about to hurt someone with his black claws. At this critical moment, the abbot master flew to the front. He gently grabbed Wang Tian's wrist with two fingers, and Wang Tian's hand could no longer move. I saw the abbot, with a slight flick of his wrist, he threw Wang Tian out. "Amitabha, Buddhism is a pure place, why does the donor come here to make trouble?" "Old monk, I just want to borrow your "Yijin Sutra" to take a look, and after reading it, I will leave immediately. "Amitabha, the Book of Yijin is the treasure of my temple, how can I say that I can borrow it. "You mean not to borrow?" "Forgive me." "Then you're toasting and not eating. Wang Tian flew over as he spoke, and the two iron claws only came towards the abbot's face. Seeing that the abbot was not in a hurry, the two big sleeves waved slightly, and a strong wind crashed towards Wang Tian, and Wang Tian hurriedly turned over to avoid it. Wang Tian knew that he was not an opponent, and after a few ups and downs, he disappeared. "Amitabha, this person is so young, I don't know where he learned such evil martial arts, it seems that the rivers and lakes are not peaceful. The abbot said, and hurried to check on the injuries of the monks.

Zhang Xiaochuan saw that the abbot was busy and had no time to care, so he left from here. At this time, Zhang Xiaochuan no longer had the heart to look at the scenery, he kept thinking about Wang Tian and the martial arts he used. Near Daxiangguo Temple, there is a cultural relics market, which happens to be open today. There are people coming and going, business is very prosperous, when Zhang Xiaochuan passed by, Leng Buding was pulled by a person, "Brother Xiaochuan." "Brother Zhou, why are you?" I didn't expect to meet here unexpectedly, and the two brothers were very happy to see each other, "Brother Zhou, how did you start the business of cultural relics?" "Brother Xiaochuan, it's hard to say." "Let's go, come home with me, and our brothers will have a good get-together." "Family, Brother Zhou, why did you get married, when did you become a family, and I didn't inform my little brother." "Brother Xiaochuan, let's talk as we go. "Zhou Ming's home is not far from Daxiangguo Temple, and it will be there in a short time. Zhou Ming's courtyard is not big or small, and it is very clean and tidy. Entering the courtyard, Zhou Zhou Ming shouted into the house, "Lady, there are guests." At this time, a woman came out with the child in her arms, "Lady, come to see Brother Xiaochuan." "Sister-in-law. When Zhang Xiaochuan saw it clearly, he could only stand stupidly, "Xiao Yezi, why are you?" Zhang Xiaochuan was completely bored, how did Xiao Yezi and Brother Zhou become a family, they still have children. "Brother Xiaochuan, do you know?" Zhang Xiaochuan nodded subconsciously, he didn't know how to get into the house.

Xiao Yezi prepared food and drinks for them, and Zhang Xiaochuan and Zhou Ming sat in the guest room and drank it. "Brother Zhou, how did you and Xiao Yezi get together?" "Brother Xiaochuan, it's a long story. After the last separation。。。。。。 Zhou Ming explained in detail how Wang Tian entertained him, and then how he deceived his Yin Yang Eighteen. "Brother Zhou has become a rich man, and he is not at home to enjoy Qingfu, why did he come to Daxiangguo Temple to do antique business?" "Brother Xiaochuan, don't make fun of me. "I don't want to do this, I just hate that Wang Tian. "Wang Tian, what's wrong?" "After he got the secret of martial arts, he thought that the progress of martial arts cultivation was slow, and he heard that the Buddhist "Yijin Sutra" can make people reborn and greatly improve their cultivation. So he found me, forced me to steal it from him, and threatened the safety of his wife and children. As a last resort, I had to pretend to agree to him, but in private I sold my family property and secretly ran to Bianjing, I wanted to hide from him. "Brother Zhou, don't you know, just now, Wang Tian also made a big fuss about the Great Xiangguo Temple. "With such a thing, it seems that Wang Tian is really extremely vicious, and he will become a big disaster in the future!" "Well, it seems that there is going to be a bloody storm on the rivers and lakes again." "Brother Xiaochuan, come to drink, the affairs of the rivers and lakes will be managed by the people on the rivers and lakes. The two of them drank until they had their best time.
